I've been bursting with excitement since a week ago, when I bought my first RV!!! (So much for my "No buying, no buying" mantra.) Please say hello to Joy.

She's a new 2012 Jayco Greyhawk 26DS motorhome - 28'9", single slide. She's a beauty and she's going to the Oregon GTG with me!

I haven't posted sooner because I don't have pix yet, and the dealer took down her page on their site as soon as I bought her. I couldn't stand it any longer, so I've scanned and uploaded some photos I printed before she was mine. Well, she's not actually mine yet. They have some of my money and I'll pick her up on Thursday, September 20, after a walk-through, instructions and closing. Thanks to members Laura (Cougarfan) and Kari (KariFlint) for your help and support in finding her.

Joy has the entertainment center in the front, with a pull-out bunk under it (about 33" wide, 4" foam mattress).

I wanted a U-dinette for relaxing, and I like the double pedestal under the table for stability.

So much storage in the kitchen and bedroom areas are part of what sold me.

Lots of excitement here in Spokane!!

And they say women can't keep secrets!! :lol:

Drop dead gorgeous and a perfect name! Can't wait to hear about your virgin trip to Oregon!!!

Dawn - I'll see you at Boot Camp, but Joy won't make it.

And Maggie, I'm hoping we can arrange a quick GTG maybe Monday, Nov 12, after Boot Camp.

Sharon, I suggested "Joyful Abandon" to someone else. Decided i like it enough it use it myself.

I forgot you'll be at Boot Camp. Cannot wait to meet you. I'll get to see Joy next time around.

CONGRATULATIONS on a great purchase! It seems as if most women on here now have class C rigs, or bigger. My trailer seems to be the exception these days. I guess that's why I am considering a truck camper light enough for my short bed F150 truck for weekend camping adventures, and perhaps long-term travels where hauling the trailer might be too much.

I love its name, too! Enjoy making it yours, and can't wait for pictures as you explore and make it home!

Congratulations :lol:

You did good! Can't wait to hear your stories of making "Joy" your own and those first trips!

Posted: **Tue Sep 11, 2012 10:40 am**

That is so nice! Enjoy your new home on wheels!

Congratulations Ellen. I've been in a fog and didn't see your post yesterday. I'm so happy for you. What a perfect rig. I'm doing the happy dance for you. :lol:
